Yuriy Shevchuk: The concert. When not in Maydan, somewhere near

We met with Yuri Shevchuk in Balaklava, after a show in Sevastopol and at the center of a scandal over the ban performances and priests (they are also involved in the tour, is dedicated to the 1020th anniversary of the Baptism of Russia) in Kiev Independence Square. We sat in the living musicians in a private hotel. And talk almost half an hour, drinking black coffee and smoking their favorite Shevchuk "Marlboro Light." - Last year you said in an interview that rock and Missions - are incompatible. And now - such a great project ... - I thought about it when Oleg Karamazov invited me to participate: whether the pathos missionary work - says "KP" musician. - He is not here. We are not like some bespectacled American missionaries to preach the extreme rationalism. This is also a pop. We have - something quite different. When Deacon Andrei Kuraev goes on stage and asked, "Where more water - the glass or the sea" - The total scream! "The Sea" And he said: "No, in a glass, if you will give to drink, the sick and the suffering." And the fact that the "life", you will not need the money, there are other values, and it should prepare, and that man is not made up of two hemispheres, from which - other dug a fridge full, and - a plate on which it is produced. Yury Shevchuk One of the main ideas of our tour - look for those basic human, which brings us together. One of them - Orthodoxy, the combination of our Slavic state. - In your case, the real life, amazing miracles? - Once we had a quarrel Theosophical very loud, in Novgorod, three clock in the courtyard of the monastery. And I am a man called out, "If there is a God, let him break out of the bell in the belfry" Bell rang. My opponent was buckled his legs! We checked in - the bell tower was closed. Generally speaking, a miracle - life. One just needs to only see and hear. - Your tour blurred countries. - Ukraine has to live in peace and brotherhood with Russia. Yushchenko and his colleagues are afraid, I think, primarily the Russian capital. They are afraid of losing money wrung from the Ukraine. Of course, if Moscow would come here, they will knock out Ukrainian business here for a week and will have everything. But it's worth fighting his prey of war between nations? If you try to engage us, I say - to all of us together build a communist. Did not happen. What now blaming each other? Half of the general secretaries of the Soviet Union, the Ukrainians, Georgians in Moscow ruled - Beria and Stalin, Lenin and the dictatorship rested on the bayonets of the Latvian ... After passing through the Ukraine, I was again convinced that war policy, and people want to live in the world, and it is - the truth is the goal! Where hatred of Russia? Do not do that! It - the main thing. - You recently played a doctor in the film "Father." There are still plans to play in a movie? - Yes, I am leaving immediately after the concert in Kiev in Tambov province. It is a serious film, takes Andrew S. Smirnov. Russian film about a woman, the story of their love, it was a symbol of his country, Russia ... Ukraine, if you want to - for me it's an everything. Her childhood, marriage, two wars - World War I and polite. About Tambov peasant uprising of peasant will and truth. I'm an assistant Antonova, we drive to the village on horseback and peasants to read lecture. Ideologist of anarcho-syndicalism? (Laughs) A small part, but a good and spacious. - Now operating in Ukraine Dubbing movies to MOV. - I do not think we should impose such violence to the people who speak in Russian. Why do not the two official languages, as in many European countries, which seeks to your government? - Will it be a concert in the Ukrainian capital on Saturday? - This is no doubt. The concert takes place. When not in Maydan, somewhere near. Well, it does not take place if we are fighting for good and love. - It seems to move as an initiative and to cancel, the proceeds from the Presidential Secretariat. How the music will stop, and so on. - It's all excuses. Only some political forces do not want it over and talk about the good and love between Russia and Ukraine. - There are rumors that President Yushchenko - the enemy of Russian rock? - Well, God bless him. But thousands of educated people of Kiev Russian rock respected.
